One cup of milk contains 318 mg of calcium. A student drinks 0.318 L of milk in one day. How many mg of calcium does the student get in one day? (1 cup = 236.6 mL). Express your answer in 3 sig fig and scientific notation.

426 mg = 4.26 x 10² mg

Explanation:

1 cup = 237.6 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.2376 L

We divide the liters of milk the student drinks into the volume in liters of a cup to calculate the number of cups the student drinks per day:

number of cups per day = 0.318 L/0.2376 L = 1.34 cup

Now, we multiply the number of cups by the amount of calcium that a cup of milk has:

amount of calcium = 1.34 cup x 318 mg = 426 mg = 4.26 x 10² mg

Therefore, the student gets 426 mg (or 4.26 x 10² mg) of calcium in one day.
